Savoury cheesecake recipe
Ingredients
400g pack shallots, peeled
8 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tbsp olive oil
150g raw beetroot, trimmed
but not peeled, and cut into 1cm wedges
For the base
125g gluten-free
breadcrumbs
70g vegetarian
Italian-style hard cheese, finely grated
70g unsalted butter,
melted
For the filling
300g full fat soft cheese
300g feta
250g tub lighter
mascarpone
4 eggs, beaten
1 lemon, zested
2 spring onions, finely
chopped
1 tbsp thyme leaves, plus
a few extra thyme sprigs, to serve
Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Grease and line the base of a 22cm springform cake tin.
Toss the shallots and
garlic with half the oil; season. In a different bowl, repeat with the beetroot
and remaining oil.
Transfer to a roasting
dish, keeping the beetroot separate from the shallots and garlic. Cover with
foil and bake for 40 mins, then remove the foil and bake for 10 mins, or until
soft and golden. Leave to cool, then chill in the fridge.
In a bowl, combine the
crumbs, hard cheese, melted butter and some black pepper. Press into the base
of the tin. Bake for 15-20 mins, until golden.
Blitz the filling
ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Pour over the cooked base and return
to the oven for 45-50 mins, until just set. Cover with foil if the top browns
too quickly. Remove and cool, then cover and chill for 5 hrs, or overnight.
When ready to serve,
unmould the cheesecake from
the tin, top with the roasted vegetables and garnish with a few extra sprigs of
thyme.

POEM OF A DOG
I am the one who always waits for you.Your car has a special sound that Ihave imprinted on my senses, I canrecognize it among a thousand.Your steps have a magic timbre.Your voice is music to my ears.If I see your joy, it makes me happy!Your scent is the best,Your presence is what moves mysenses.Your awakening wakes me up.I watch you sleep and for me you aremy God, I am happy watching overyour sleep.Your gaze is a ray of light. Your handson me have the lightness of peace andthe sublime display of infinite love.When you go out, I feel a hugeemptiness in my heart.I wait for you again and again.I am the one who will wait for you allmy life today, tomorrow and always:I am your dog
Here's a dozen of my favorite things never to apologize for:
1) Never apologize for acting on your instincts.
2) Never apologize for being passionate.
3) Never apologize for being smart.
4) Never apologize for demanding respect.
5) Never apologize for saying no.
6) Never apologize for not embracing someone else's agenda.
7) Never apologize for disagreeing.
8) Never apologize for your faith.
9) Never apologize for your own sense of creativity.
10) Never apologize for ordering dessert.
11) Never apologize for being funny.
12) Never apologize for living your truth.
Every one of us casts a shadow.
There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.
The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."
"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
~J. R. Miller, "The Shadows We Cast"
